This is where it starts...

Apr 03, 2013

For me, food has always been a challenge. I am a huge snacker and love my sweets. But I knew when i couldn't even run around and play with my niece & nephew something had to change. At the beginning of 2012 i made it a goal to work out and diet but as much as i tried it didn't work. Over a six month period i had lost 5 lbs. I had been eating better and exercising but i wasn't very strict with myself. This is when my doctor suggested Weight Loss Surgery. I took to the notion like a lot of other people that this option was just a way out. My doctor quickly corrected me saying that this is a tool to help me for the rest of my life. I am so happy she convinced me. I started my insurance requirements and have lost 25lbs since Dec 2012.  My surgery has been approved and it has been scheduled for april 17th!! I am excited as well as terrified. I want a new beginning in my life and this is where it starts. Right now i am on my 2week Pre-op liquid diet currently hungrier than I have ever been in my whole life, but strangely i don't even care. I am not saying its easy, its defiantly a challenge but i am going to kick this challenges ass!!!
